2017
Each year I compile the list of favorite dances throughout the San Francisco Bay Area from the beginning of the year ’til the end. The list comes from my own “expert” opinion and mostly from my monthly reports on favorite line dances. REMEMBER: The list only includes dances choreographed in 2017 (and 2 from Dec. 2016). (Red indicates dances using country music.) The Top 50 of 2017 (Jan.-Dec.) were:
